Jerry Webster, "LJ", 30, of Centralia, Illinois passed away on March 07, 2026 at his home in Centralia, Illinois.
LJ was born on September 17, 1995 to his father, Jerry Hill, and mother, Sandra Ann Easley in Toledo, Ohio.
LJ was beloved for the warmth, laughter, and kindness that he showed to all who knew him. He found great joy in cooking and sharing meals, often bringing family and friends together around the table.
He enjoyed playing games, watching football and basketball, and relaxing with a good movie. Simple moments spent cheering on his favorite teams or enjoying a film with loved ones were some of the happiest times.
Above all, he cherished his family and friendships. His welcoming spirit, sense of humor, and love for others will be deeply missed but fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing them.
He is survived by his parents, Sandra Ann and her husband, James Armstrong of Mississippi, and five siblings: Charles Lyons Jr. of Ohio; Tiffany (Britnee) Lyons of North Carolina; Mary Sprow (Jeremey) of Ohio; Raychelle Easley of Mississippi; and Crystal Champion of Ohio. He also leaves behind four nieces—Allison Brown, Jenna Brown, SaVayah Lyons, and Mei’Lani Donald and two nephews, Kain Brown and Charles Lyons III, along with a host of uncles, cousins, and special friends.
He is preceded in death by his father, Jerry Hill of OH, his brother in law, Jeremey Sprow, and his grandparents, Eddie (Odessa) Webster of MS.
